AFC Wimbledon won promotion to the Football League for the first time in their history with a dramatic penalty shoot-out win over Luton at Eastlands.

Its a real pity what happened to their fans, good on them getting another club going, always been hoping they make a swift return.

How awesome would it be if Wimbledon knocked out MK Dons in a promotion match?

The possibility of them playing against each other in the league is not that far way, one division splits them and you think that AFC Wimbldeon could attract players because of their reputation, you could well see them playing each other sooner rather than later.

Big blow losing Danny Kedwell to Gillingham.

Still think they will be able to attract some good players to the club.
